The gap is not “goodwill”
• It’s not the result of some abstract market
“feeling”
• It’s the result of 30+ years of investment in
the knowledge infrastructure of American
corporations (people, processes, info tech,
networks)
• Annual investment in knowledge
intangibles now exceeds tangible
investment….

It’s about investment in knowledge

Narrative is not enough
PwC provided two different versions of an annual report
to groups of analysts:
1. Financial statements, narrative, a few key metrics and extensive quantified nonfinancial data [full Coloplast annual report]
2. Stripped out quantified nonfinancial data [resulting report still similar to/better than market norm]
Very different results:
1. 60% of analysts recommended “buy”
earnings estimate lower but more consistent
2. 80% recommended “sell”
earnings estimate higher

How to fill the gap?
A. Inventory
B. Measurement - triangulation
1. Financials
investment is easiest but ignored
2. Quantitative
KPI’s popular but dangerous
3. Qualitative
assessments create quantitative data about hard-to-
measure but critical data
C. Narrative/XBRL give them something to talk about

I-Capex* ($1.6 trillion/year)
• Most intangible capital expenditures are
expensed under today’s acctg standards
• Cost is actually the most concrete piece of
data available about intangibles
• Should be tracked in a management report
• Internally, will help with better decisions
• Externally, will help tell corporate story
* the new capital expenditure

ICA-12
IC assessment*
• Systematic analysis of qualitative issues
• Turns qualitative into quantitative data
• Range from self-assessment to broad review by stakeholders (both internal and external)
• Focus on adequacy, performance, risk, outlook
• Can be built for strategy, innovation, valuation, reputation perspectives
• Ideal is a 360-degree review of the entire IC/ knowledge factory portfolio
* the new balance sheet

Performance measurement*
• Uses non-financial quantitative indicators
• Examples: headcount, customer demographics, IP mapping, process metrics
• Bottom up for learning
• Top down for management and reporting—key performance indicators (KPI’s)
* the new income statement

Simple triangulation example
Pre- and post- implementation of a new
knowledge sharing platform
1. Investment in new knowledge sharing
platform (human, structural, relationship)
2. Qualitative measures (employee
communication and collaboration)
3. Quantitative measures (number of steps
to solve a problem, time to resolution)

Triangulation at corp level
FIRST - inventory primary value-creation
processes (SC), competencies (HC) and
relationships (RC)
Track annual investments
Assess performance, risk, outlook
Track key quantitative measures

For now…
• We need to work within existing systems
• The place to start is management accounting for bottom-up learning
• Changes to statutory reporting cannot be institutionalized until there is a clear emerging practice
• For now, the best top-down influence is education…and the best place to start is to teach accountants triangulation
